Excessive...perhaps, uncommon...no. Most rooms now take 3% for dealers out of the prize pool because people were not usually tiping dealers.
I mostly play @ Mohengan Sun @ Pocono Down and for a 100 dollar tournament it would be 10 bucks in rake +5 for an option dealer add on which I would guess everyone takes.

The $125 Bounty NL Tournaments are $75 (BI) + $25 (bounty) + $20 (fee) + $5 (optional dealer toke).
Which tournament did you play in where the buy in was $100 and the fee only $10. I suppose it is possible in a re-buy tournament, but I doubt if there is any freezeout with a $100 BI and only a $10 fee.
No, that is the players responsibility, not the dealers. It's not required like a blind.
Just to play devil's advocate.... If a player misses a blind and then sits back down at the table, most dealer's will ask them if they want to post. This is not the dealers respsponsibility and is not required. It is done as a courtesy.

I'll have to check this...I'm on the road... but... I thought that the 120 bounty @ MS@PD was 85bi+10rake+25bounty and 5 dollar optional add on.

Yea, I see what you're saying. But its not like they ask every utg player if they want to post a straddle so they shouldnt be reminded imo. You need blinds, not straddles.
Maybe he feels bad for the poor degenerate, and doesn't like to see people do obviously -EV things at the table. He also probably tables his hand on the river, to prevent people from betting him when he has the nuts.

Actually, I'm pretty sure it is their responsibility. Most dealers know I'm not going to post but ask anyway. "I know the answer, but I have to ask if you want to post."
